Groove Music Pass was accessed via the Groove app in Windows 10. Microsoft promises that the Groove app will stick around for Windows 10 to play music purchased from the Windows Store. You’ll just lose the option to use the Groove Music Pass streaming service at year’s end.

Groove Music Pass was the successor to Xbox Music Pass, a streaming service launched in 2012. And in 2006, before Spotify was even an idea, Microsoft had Zune Music Pass, a subscription service that gave Zune owners unlimited music downloads every month.

This means that Microsoft is without a music service of its own for the first time in over a decade. And dedicated Microsoft fans are disappointed by the retirement, and perhaps a sign that the company isn’t focused on consumer services.
